A weekly podcast looking at events in the world of Irish and international film, the Scannain podcast is the perfect way to start the weekend. Discussing everything from what the hosts watched this week to the top ten and new releases, the team also discuss the Irish Film Board’s funding initiatives for the new year and access to film via streaming services.
Sometimes a movie lands (pardon the pun) at the right time. If you had told me that a movie about a guy looking to earn 10,000,000 frequent flyer miles in first class would be arguably one of the most interesting explorations of the recession that Hollywood would offer, I would have laughed in your face. But, against all odds, it works. That the guy in question is George Clooney and the man behind the camera is Jason Reitman undoubtedly helps.
